Instructions
- Pour oil into a medium size skillet and heat over medium high heat.

- Prepare the cinnamon sugar by combining the sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Stir to mix.
- Add the cut tortillas to the heated oil in batches. Fry each side for about 30 seconds until starting to brown and crispy. Then turn and fry the other side.
- When done, transfer to a plate or baking tray lined with paper towels. Once out of the oil immediately sprinkle with the cinnamon sugar. Let cool.
- Meanwhile, continue frying the remaining tortilla until all tortilla chips are fried.
- Serve warm or room temperature.
